Don’t have the funding to compete with HPU and CSU for sure. But both men and women are finishing third from bottom in BSth in cross and track. Shouldn’t be losing to Upstate and Longwood!
They have enough funding especially in that conference. Especially with the SC lottery scholarship.
Paxton was not good at his job, the interim isn't going to be any better looks pretty unprofessional every time I see him at meets. Dude is wearing muscle shirts half the time. If they want to be good hopefully they hire outside
When a head Coach retires just before the season, it presses the school to make an assistant the interim and thus a better chance to named the head coach. Winthrop's issue has been that it is almost a suburb of Charlotte, but any North Carolina students have to pay out of state tuition, thus much cheaper to go to UNCC.
Did Erik Vance at South Plains take another job? Coaches Wire this morning had this in it..."
Wayland Baptist: Men’s & Women’s Head Track & Field Coach Wes Miller departs after one season to accept the same role at South Plains (NJCAA). Men’s & Women’s Assistant Track & Field Coach Toby Kirk has been elevated to Interim Head Coach for the 2025 season."
The men were third indoors and fourth outdoors. The women struggled a bit but the team is almost all freshman and sophomores. This could be Winthrop's best track team ever.

Because we all know the key to track and field success is having sleeves on our shirts.

So good enough. Exactly how much funding does Winthrop have? You seem to be an expert on their scholarship and support levels. How many mens and women's scholarships do you know they have? crickets.........

they had a signed athelte make an instagram post saying the school couldnt honor the scholarship and that she was reentering the recruitment process. Possibility is that the school has chosen to suck the program more dry in order to keep up with NIL
